This week I received a very touching letter, and I wanted to publicly acknowledge and thank the sender- Meredith. She is the daughter of one of my wife’s dearest friends, and she sent us a very nice note along with a check in support of the Epilepsy Foundation of Western Ohio. What makes this really special is that Meredith lives half way across the country and is only in the third grade. She came up with the idea on her own, and she raised all of the money herself.
Meredith, you are quite a remarkable girl. My family and countless other families whom you have helped through your kindness, initiative, and generosity, truly appreciate your contribution to the Epilepsy Foundation. I am honored to know you. Thank you for reminding me of the goodness of which humanity is capable. Your selfless act inspires and amazes me.
